Lee, Colleagues Urge Federal Judicial Center to Retract Climate Agenda Materials WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) joined by a coalition of his colleagues in the Senate, sent a letter to Federal Judicial Center (FJC) Director Judge Robin Rosenberg raising concerns that the FJC’s Reference Manual on Scientific Evidence pushes a politicized climate agenda and does not meet the standard of a neutral judicial resource. The letter in particular cited the Manual’s presentation of disputed scientific claims as settled fact without acknowledging competing models. Joined by Senator Lee are U.S. Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), and Eric Schmitt (R-MO).
